Chapter 3 Configuration

3.1 Network

3.1.1 Status
The Status page shows the system information, the port connection status and other information
related to this router.
Choose the menu Network→Status→System Status to load the following page.
Figure 3-1 Status
3.1.2 System Mode
The TL-ER604W can work in three modes: NAT, Non-NAT and Classic.
If your router is hosting your local network’s connection to the Internet with a network topology as the
Figure 3-2 shows, you can set it to NAT mode.
-8-
Figure 3-2 Network Topology - NAT Mode
If your router is connecting the two networks of different areas in a large network environment with a
network topology as the Figure 3-3 shows, and forwards the packets between these two networks by
the Routing rules, you can set it to Non-NAT mode.
Figure 3-3 Network Topology – Non-NAT Mode
If your router is connected in a combined network topology as the Figure 3-4 shows, you can set it to
Classic Mode.
Figure 3-4 Network Topology – Classic Mode
Choose the menu Network→System Mode to load the following page.
-9-
Figure 3-5 System Mode
You can select a System Mode for your router according to your network need.
NAT Mode
NAT (Network Address Translation) mode allows the router to translate private IP addresses within
internal networks to public IP addresses for traffic transport over external networks, such as the
Internet. Incoming traffic is translated back for delivery within the internal network. However, the router
will drop all the packets whose source IP addresses are in different subnet of LAN port. For example: If
the LAN port of the router is set to 192.168.0.1 for IP address and 255.255.255.0 for the Subnet Mask,
then the subnet of LAN port is 192.168.0.0/24. The packet with 192.168.0.123 as its source IP address
can be transported by NAT, whereas the packet with 20.31.76.80 as its source IP address will be
dropped.
Non-NAT Mode
In this mode, the router functions as the traditional Gateway and forwards the packets via routing
protocol. The Hosts in different subnets can communicate with one another via the routing rules
whereas no NAT is employed.
Note:
In Non-NAT mode, all the NAT forwarding rules will be disabled.
Classic Mode
It's the combined mode of NAT mode and Non-NAT mode. In Classic mode, the router will first
transport the packets which are compliant with NAT forwarding rules and then match the other packets
to the static routing rules. The matched packets will be transmitted based on the static routing rules
and the unmatched ones will be dropped. In this way, the router can implement NAT for the packets
without blocking the packets in the different subnet of the ports.
3.1.3 WAN
3.1.3.1 WAN Mode
TL-ER604W provides two adjustable WAN ports. You can set the number of WAN ports on this page.
Choose the menu Network→WAN→WAN Mode to load the following page.

Figure 3-6 WAN Mode
WAN Ports:
Select the total number of WAN ports you prefer to use. The router
support one WAN and dual WAN. The router will adjust the physical
ports accordingly, which can be illustrated on the following port sketch.
Note:
By default, TL-ER604W is set to work in the mode of dual WAN ports.
Any change to the number of WAN ports may lead to a loss of current configurations. Please be
sure to back up your configurations in advance.
3.1.3.2 WAN1
TL-ER604W provides the following six Internet connection types: Static IP, Dynamic IP,
PPPoE/Russian PPPoE, L2TP/Russian L2TP, PPTP/Russian PPTP and BigPond. To configure the
WAN, please first select the type of Internet connection provided by your ISP (Internet Service
Provider).
Tips:
It’s allowed to set the IP addresses of both the WAN ports within the same subnet. However, to
guarantee a normal communication, make sure that the WAN ports can access the same network,
such as Internet or a local area network.
Choose the menu Network→WAN→WAN1 to load the configuration page.
1) Static IP
If a static IP address has been provided by your ISP, please choose the Static IP connection type to
configure the parameters for WAN port manually.
